Following the discovery of a new X-ray outburst from
the direction of Terzan 5 with INTEGRAL
(most likely due to EXO 1745-248, Atels #2919 and #2920), two Swift/XRT observations
were requested. The first pointing (00031841001) was carried out
from 2010 October 10 at 17:41:16 to 2010 October 10 at
17:57:52 (UTC, total exposure time 1 ks) in PC mode
in order to improve the localization of the source.
Only one source is present within the XRT field of view at a
position consistent with that reported in Atel #2920.
This provide further support in favor of the association
between the INTEGRAL source and the X-ray transient EXO 1745-248.

The second Swift pointing (00031841002) was
carried out in WT mode from 2010 October 10 at
19:14:57 to 2010 October 10 at 19:48:18 (UTC).
The total exposure time was of 2 ks.
In the XRT/WT observation the source count-rate was
7.7+/-0.2 (corrected for telescope vignetting and PSF losses)
and its spectrum could reasonably well fit
(reduced chi^2/dof=1.08/228) with
an absorbed blackbody model. We measured an absorption
column density of (0.50+/-0.08)E22 cm^(-2), a blackbody
temperature of 1.27+/-0.04 keV and a radius of
4.2+/-0.2 Km (for a source distance of 10 kpc).
The observed flux was (4.5+/-0.2)E-10 ergs/cm^2/s
(1-10 keV, all errors are given at 90% c.l.).

Further observations with Swift have been requested.

We thank the Swift team for their support and
the very rapid scheduling of the transient source.
